If its a sitcom or single episode story line, they can last. But its rare to sustain excellence week to week if there is a continuing theme. Writers can't hang out a plot when they don't know if they'll be working beyond a 3-week window, or beyond that, a following season.
At best they incorporate a single episode plot with a longer development, so they can straddle that line.
